DE-FOA-0002071: Fiscal Year (FY) 2019 Wind Energy Technologies Office Funding Opportunity Announcement

The FOA has been modified to:

1) Revise the eligibility information for applications under Area of Interest 4 on page 21 to remove the requirement that the prime recipient must perform more than 50% of the project work, as measured by the Total Project Costs; and

2) Revise and clarify required LCOE analysis and include additional detail on assumptions in Appendix H – Guidelines for Tall Tower Estimates.

(See DE-FOA-0002071_Mod 003 under the "Documents" heading below.)

The FOA was also previously modified (001) to correct the maximum funding amount for Subtopic 2a on page 10.
